love resides in the commonplace — intimacy exists in the spaces of ordinary service: and paik sa-eon is the very embodiment of this kind of devotion — attention towards the minutiae of a relationship: the tiny acts of tenderness that can make or break a union.
the kind of devotion that says: "i'll wash these fruits for you so that it's safe for you to eat." "i'll lower the bed for you so you're comfortable while you sleep." "i'll take care of your everyday needs because that's exactly what i want to do — take care of you every single day."
there's a special kind of bittersweet longing leaking through sa-eon's eyes when heejoo begs him not to go — an inchoate ache as he cradles her hand to his face: almost as if his lips are anchoring themselves to her skin; reassuring his own self that she's safe, unharmed — still with him. still his to touch. still his to look after.
simple gestures are often how you measure the soul of a marriage — whether you're with someone who cares about the temperature of the water when he's washing your hair. whether you're with someone who'll dry it for you with painstaking carefulness.
as poet ilya kaminsky wrote: "soaping together — that is sacred to me / you can fuck anyone — but with whom can you sit in water?"
to sa-eon; heejoo is as inevitable as the weather — an endless force in his life. a forever presence: someone so threaded to the fibers of his being that he can't help but say: "tell me how to hate you: (because i'm physically incapable of looking at you with anything but love.)"

Paik SaEon is the real caveman of this era... like what do you mean you married your fiancée's stepsister to save the said stepsister from marrying a total asshole. but, you are also acting like an asshole to the said stepsister that is now your wife. can't you be normal and just fcking confess that you had a crush on her and you want to protect her? why are you complicate things for yourself and treat your wife as if she is invisible? the angst, the sexual tension, the jealousy, the caveman instinct, the heart eyes you hide from her in the beginning of your marriage. dayummmmm, this drama is keeping me at the edge of my seat and i love it.
yes i love the male lead that is borderline red flag but will slowly learn his way and turns to a green flag and finally becoming the real fool and hopelessly in love. although this one is hopelessly in love since the beginning but act like a total scumbag to protect the said "my person"

Chae Soo Bin as Hong Hee Joo
Never getting over how Chae Soo Bin emoted in this scene. Hong Hee Joo was all teary eyed , overwhelmed seeing how her love has always had eyes only for her. The feeling of being loved was so alien to her entire life and now it’s overflowing from Baek Saeon. I will never stop saying how tender and soft their moments of realising each other’s love have been in this drama.
Well done to her, the writer and director 👏🏼

You all just need to mark my words here (since I was already damn right about the kiss thing SIR PLEASE?????) Hee Joo would really REALLY GO TO TOWN ON Paek sa on when given the opportunity
Exhibit A: what DO YOU THINK is the probability of her literary falling full stop on his lips like that? Mathematically speaking
Exhibit B: my kinky queen just hugged and cuddled a drunk man who confessed his love to her and fell asleep on the floor like please you all the makers aren’t even trying to hide that we had got it all wrong at the beginning it’s not paek sa on who’s the wattpad coded alpha mafia husband ITS HEE JOO
I can go on and on but, like please one of her primary complaints about their marriage was that they didn’t get to sleep in the same room?? (Girl I get it) and when he asks with the bedroomist eyes known to mankind “would you want that?” SHE NEVER SAYS NO?????? (He Joo is one of us )
And I just hope the kdrama society of girlies (gender neutrally obvi) forever remembers that he Joo never stopped him from from undressing the bow tie on her neck and checking her wound
And was not even slightly concerned, mad isn’t even on the table with us, when he was trying to check if she actually had a mole on her thigh so
Yeah

"406 or Hong Hee Joo, he wouldn’t care anyway."
Many fans watching the show tend to focus on the male lead without noticing the female lead's feelings, or they somewhat underestimate her emotions.
But in my opinion, Hee Joo's feelings are very clear, even bordering on... madness and recklessness. From the start, although she said she wanted to grab the phone to ask for a divorce, the nature of that call seemed more like she wanted to vent her disappointment to him, to talk to him, to draw his attention. When she heard his concern for her over the phone, she happily rewound it over and over like a child, then laughed, "So he does get scared, after all."
She became flustered whenever he showed care for her, worried when he was attacked, and because of just one sentence from him, her emotions became chaotic, her heart constantly hoping that he would say just one confirming thing: "I care about you. Everything I’ve done and said was because I feared you’d get hurt." But our spokesperson here has his own troubles—he cannot confess his feelings, which makes her even more confused and uncertain. She fears that she might be deluding herself, thinking he cares when in reality he may just feel pity or honor-bound.
She practiced sign language using his videos—not in the usual sense of memorizing but in a way where she could tell, just from a quick glance at his shirt color or the background, exactly what the video was about. She studied so obsessively that she understood what he would say next even before he voiced it.
Then, after her father was threatened and she was repeatedly kidnapped and blackmailed, one might think she’d cave into fear and obey that madman’s manipulation. But no, because he came for her, she believed. Even though she was still hesitant and couldn’t muster the courage to speak the truth, even though she was panicking, she decided she couldn’t use that phone anymore and began to open up to her husband. I believe that if her sister hadn’t returned, sooner or later, she would have confessed everything and faced the hardships with him. But without drama, would it even be a chaebol romance?
Her sister’s return woke her up. She realized she was still just a puppet, a substitute, so she wanted to run away before getting hurt any further. During the party, hearing her mother insult her and her sister’s friends belittle her only made her more exhausted. The breaking point was seeing the man she loved standing and smiling with them. He was lofty and untouchable on his pedestal, while she was as insignificant as a speck of dust in the mud. How despairing it must have been!
When she was on the rooftop, she called him using the 406 number. I don’t know if others think the same as me, but I feel she didn’t do it just because she feared the kidnapper (at least not entirely). She wanted to use this method to catch his attention again. The phone rang again and again, but he didn’t pick up, making Hee Joo feel even more miserable. Her inner voice was like a plea: "It’s fine if you don’t care about me. But even if I approach you as 406, do you still not care?"
Both Hee Joo and Sa Eon love and feel deeply insecure because of each other. I hope they quickly grow, face their true feelings, confess and live happily ever after. Watching them suffer makes me sad too!

what i loved best about this episode were the quiet moments of intimacy strewn throughout the scenes despite the obvious tension of the plot. heejoo and sa-eon are finally communicating — bridging the borders between their bodies and minds that three years of misunderstandings had erstwhile created.
film-director céline sciamma famously had one of her characters ask her partner: "do all lovers feel as though they're inventing something?" and the truth is they do — they all do. the gentle touches, the lingering looks — the scene in which sa-eon signs the words he wants to say most to heejoo in a crowded elevator (yet as a viewer all we seem to see is the two of them) are all evidence of a private language which only two people in love can speak. lovers invent their own language — their own particular promises of comfort — of care. of "it's you and i against the world."
i saw this whole episode as a metaphor on identity and invention: sa-eon's ability to accept heejoo in all the murky depths of her secrecy as 406 enabled her to offer him that same absolution — that same blind loyalty to whomsoever he is at heart. paik sa-eon's entire life has always been a veneer — he has always been surrounded by pretense on all sides. he's created so many personas — the powerful son, the polished spokesperson, the media-savvy mogul. but it's the identity that heejoo was able to bring to life in him — an ordinary man who loves his wife: that he cherishes most.
this is what it means to love someone to the point of invention: where only the person they can create in you matters. where only the identity formed from your devotion to them remains after everything else is stripped away.
"the only sa-eon that i want to keep is the paik sa-eon that belongs to you, heejoo." 🤍
